Long Covid-19 occurs in individuals with a history of probable or confirmed SARS CoV-2 infection, usually three months from the onset of Covid-19, and with symptoms that last for at least two months and cannot be explained by an alternative diagnosis.
Common symptoms include fatigue, shortness of breath, cognitive dysfunction but also others and generally have an impact on everyday functioning. Symptoms may be new onset following initial recovery from an acute Covid-19 episode or persist from the initial illness. Symptoms may also fluctuate or relapse over time.
